The building was dedicated on December 13, 1890. On this site, they constructed a three-story brick building, designed by Herbert C Burdett of the Buffalo firm of Marling & Burdett. By February, the directors had purchased a lot, 417 Delaware Avenue, at the southeast corner of Delaware Avenue and Edward Streets, not far from the Buffalo Club. In 1889, the club and its 150 members formally incorporated in Erie County and decided to construct their own building. In 1887, they moved to another rented house, a small Second Empire style home at 331 Delaware Avenue, before relocating to a larger, Italianate cottage at 393 Delaware Avenue, opposite the Buffalo Club. Initially, the members met in a house owned by Sprague's grandfather but by 1886, the members decided to rent three rooms at the rear of a dwelling at 640 Main Street. With a nod to the many ' University Clubs' of the time, Saturn's founders patterned their board of directors after that of a small college, including: Dues were US$10 (equivalent to about $326 in 2022) a month, and the initiation fee was a chair.

They first congregated on Saturdays, hence the name, to socialize and play cards. They recruited the ten others including John B. The first three founders were: Carlton Sprague, William F. In 1885, The Saturn Club was founded by thirteen young men who wanted to congregate in a less formal setting than their father's traditional clubs.

Saturn Club is a private social club, founded in 1885, in Buffalo in Erie County, New York that currently operates out of an National Register of Historic Places-listed building at 977 Delaware Ave.
